Amazon will now deliver to local shops in some areas. I've used that
service amnd found that it works very well. An email is sent to you when
the item is ready for collection, take some ID and sign for it. In my case
the shop is a dawn-to-dusk type place.


I've looked into it but they don't seem to be many carrying the service near
here and certainly none closer than the Royal Mail sorting office which is
within walking distance. Really I want to at least be told which delivery
firm will be used before I place the order or better still have a choice.
